Bettman & Halpin

The award-winning duo Bettman & Halpin performs a fresh and enduring combination of Americana, folk and bluegrass.

Stephanie Bettman is an accomplished writer, singer, and fiddler. Her lyrics are infused with wit and wisdom, poetry and insight. Vocally, she draws comparison to the soaring soprano of Joan Baez and the plaintive emotion of Emmylou Harris. Her fiddling, which combines elements of bluegrass and jazz, is inspired by such masters as Stephane Grappelli, Byron Berline and Johnny Gimble.

Luke Halpin is a renowned multi-instrumentalist. A master of the guitar and the mandolin, impressive on fiddle, banjo, and adroit at nearly anything he picks up. He draws inspiration from the likes of Sam Bush, Mark O’Connor and Tony Rice and holds his own in comparison. A dynamic and sensitive vocalist himself, the harmony blend he and Stephanie achieve is sublime. Luke has a long history in the music biz, having shared the stage with Merle Haggard, Lone Star and The Steve Miller Band. His quirky sense of humor is a perfect foil to Stephanie’s dry, witty presence.

Their passion for music and performance is only surpassed by their love of community engagement, both at home and on the road.They illustrate the power of music to transform.
